HALLOUMI CHEESE, sliced into 1/2 inch thick batons34.8 g

Bread, pita, whole-wheat, cut into wedges26.6 g

Tomatoes, grape, halved42.6 g

Cucumber, with peel, sliced85.1 g

ZA'ATAR SEASONING1.1 tsp (approx 3g)

Lemon, fresh juice1.1 wedge (approx 15g)

Instructions

Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the Halloumi batons. Sear for 1-2 minutes per side until the surface is deeply golden and develops a crisp, salty crust.

While the cheese sears, warm your pita wedges briefly in the toaster oven.

Arrange the warm, squeaky Halloumi on a plate alongside the fresh cucumber slices and halved grape tomatoes. Sprinkle the za'atar generously over the cheese and vegetables.

Finish with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon juice over everything to cut through the saltiness of the cheese. Serve immediately while the Halloumi is soft and warm inside, using the pita to scoop up any remaining bits.
